Together, we can help save the lives and property of our citizens.

I support President Biden's efforts to invest in this, and his goal of a half a million new charging stations.

I think this is an area where we can grow our workforce and train them, create jobs--create new jobs--transition the skills to these jobs, which will benefit our workforce as well.

The FORWARD Act provides an enhanced R&D Credit for U.S. companies to the extent they also manufacture in this country.

Being able to obtain these critical minerals and resources domestically, we all know, will help incentivize domestic manufacturing and technology.

I think the conversation we are having today is crucial if we are going to really bring back that manufacturing...

We are going to have to look at making the pass-through rates more competitive.

I have introduced legislation because I think we need to have a national strategy and a clear strategy on electric vehicle framework.

The American Innovation and Jobs Act is also a great start to bolstering the R&D Credit.

You cannot have a democracy that record 60 percent of the vote on everything. And that’s what the Republicans have done. They have made a mockery of what the Senate should be.

The country is better off having a real democracy, not a fake democracy. Sixty percent is not a democracy.

I rise today to speak in support of the historic nomination of Congresswoman Deb Haaland to serve as our Nation's next Secretary of the Interior. This Cabinet position is of great importance to our Nation and especially to Western States…

I suggest the absence of a quorum. The PRESIDENT pro tempore. The clerk will call the roll. The senior assistant legislative clerk proceeded to call the roll.

That is what I want to verify.

I also agree with my good colleague, Senator King, on electric vehicles. There is potential there.

Is there a role for Congress to play here to ensure that we are addressing the needed winterization and weatherization across the country?

I think the area that Congress should reflect on and potentially take action on is to think about how that extends into the natural gas and fuel sectors.
